Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove that his membership in various fire protection and standardization associations required outstanding achievements as judged by national or international experts. The AAO concluded that the membership criteria for the submitted organizations were based on standard levels of education, experience, or professional titles rather than the high standard of extraordinary ability required by the regulation.
